Hunting rifles I clean at the end of season unless something extraordinary happens (dropped in water, etc.) Precision rifles I clean when patterns inexplicably open up or I’ve shot about 500 rounds. Plinking rifles rarely. I generally clean actions after every shooting session unless it’s only...

I was in Tucson all weekend and found local birds but nothing spectacular. They’ve had a great monsoon season so birds have plenty of places to go. Quail season should be good

Greetings, I wanted to share another opportunity to brush up on marksmanship ahead of hunting season. I have no affiliation other than being a supporter of this great charity. The socks themselves are amazing too especially for hunting in temperatures above freezing. $150 to shoot 10 different...

They are incredibly, dangerously loud and blow debris everywhere especially when prone. In my opinion, for my purposes, the benefits don’t outweigh the consequences. I personally don’t use ear protection 100% of the time when hunting and it just takes one or two shots to lose your hearing from...

The way I decided to go was the realization that I don’t blink to spend money on defensive handgun/CCW classes but rarely did rifle training beyond the bench. Also I’ve heard about a million guide stories about misses, wounding, etc. and don’t want to be bad story…. - stability is everything...

This class was 2 approximately 7 hour days over a weekend for $500 flat. He does pistol, AR, etc. as well but I’ve only done the scoped rifle courses. The days are packed, essentially no breaks, so you get your money’s worth in my opinion.

Took a great shooting class with Change of Behavior in Valley Center this weekend, brushing up ahead of October, November, and December hunts! Targets out to 600+ from every position other than bench! 160ish rounds over 2 days, Highly recommended. He has a lot of gear you can try before you buy...
